Video Highlights from the Feed the Gays CSU scholarship benefit - and an excellent new PoetryVidz YouTube Channel
On April 4th, Dianne Borsenik and I performed as Lix and Kix at the Union Station Night Club in Cleveland to benefit the Cleveland State University GLASA scholarship fund (Feed the Gays). We had a great time, and I plan to write a lengthier blog about that event (and share some of the many photos I took) when I have a bit more leisure. For now I just want to mention that our friend Ken Kitt, who was on hand to film the festivities, has an excellent new new PoetryVidz You Tube Channel and has posted highlights from our GLASA show, as well as from lots of other fantastic recent Cleveland area poetry events, on that channel. Check all out the fine work he's done at http://www.youtube.com/user/poetryvidz. Since Ken has kindly allowed me to use his videos on my blog and online library, here are a couple of samples that will hopefully whet your appetite. More will be coming soon. Thanks, Ken!

Thanks, Smith! It's interesting to hear that from the man who has what is probably the largest art and poetry site on the internet at www.agentofchaos.com. I appreciate the vote of confidence and your allowing me to feature your poetry in the online library.

It's an entirely different experience witnessing it aloud!

Glad you posted all this here.. more people will see it than just those that happen to spot it on FaceBook.
One can miss posts and things on FaceBook the way it is set up now.. it doesn't recycle Wall links and posts the way it used to.. and if there are a lot they get bumped off the side bar.
Also not everyone is linked to Ken Kitt as you've said and not everyone is on FaceBook or MySpace..
People need to know that they need to join You Tube to be able to download the videos though or to post comments there on either your site or Kens poetry site.. Not everyone knows that.
Thanks Ken for the great videos.. of all the readings.
And congrats to you and Dianne on a super job.
Looking forward to more of them.

Thanks, Chris! I'm still rather amazed at how many videos Ken has uploaded there in such a short time!

He said You Tube allows a dozen uploads at a time.. so that's good.
